9Round 30:00 [4]
Lots of burpees and rock climbers today, not my favorites. It does seem to be getting a little easier, tho', since I made it through and forgot to use my inhaler ahead of time.
10 AM
Dog Walking 25:00 [2] 1.75 mi (14:17 / mi)
shoes: Skechers GoRunS
Since I was going to 9Round, I had ElRay wait in the car, then took her to Jesse James Park for a walkabout. We saw two small, hairy dogs right away, then two Frisbee players who had just finished a round, one of whom turned out to be David Elliot, half of Wandering Aimlessly. He said that his partner had an injury, and that's why we hadn't seen them in awhile.
After these encounters in the first quarter-mile, we saw no one else, and we were the only car in any of the parking lots. What wimps! We did have a pretty bitter north wind, and the path was snow- and ice-covered, but compared with the last two weeks, it was almost balmy, and ElRay got some much needed exercise. I didn't run because of all the ice, but got in some good race-walking.

Today, two of the stations had burpees. I don't much like burpees.

9Round 30:00 [5]
The workout seemed just a little easier today, but my glutes and legs are really sore from yesterday.

9Round 30:00 [5]
Four of the 30-sec. "breaks" today were variations on planks. Anything is better than burpees.

Workout 30:00 [5]
Did my 30-minute 9Round workout today. Lots of burpees (I don't like burpees), planks, squats, etc. Figured out why some of the kicks are so hard--the equipment is one size fits all, and most of the all are taller than me. I have to really work for the kicks.

Bicycle 22:00 [5] 6.91 mi (3:11 / mi)
max:142
All ready to go and they canceled kickboxing. Since the high today will be 0 degrees, with a howling wind, all outdoor activity except dog-walking is canceled for me.
So I got on the bicycle for the first time in a while, and did the Stump Puller. The grade does go up past 25% in a couple of places, so I am sweating, but very pleased that I felt stronger than a few months ago. Also, I cranked up Classic Rock, tried to sing along, but couldn't. Oh well, I will see Jared tonight for another sweat session.

Workout 1:00 [4]
Weekly workout with Jared. Pushed the sled tonight. Going forward not so bad, but going backwards is a quad burner. Lots of balance, like doing the ropes on balance boards. Got me warm.
